Justification of Red List categoryThis species is listed as Near Threatened owing to its small population and hence almost qualifies for Vulnerable under criterion C1. The population trend was unknown but it may now be thought to be in a state of growth and so the species may qualify for downlisting to Least Concern in the future.
